Hmmm... I'm running 3.2 and it defintely manifests scaleup. I tried it with various partition sizes, it defaulted to 1k, then scaled to 2k, hit 4k at around 300G (the biggest single volume I had to play with). > > Regardless, I think the point I was trying to drive > home is simple - You need to ensure "equality" of > db_block_size and the filesystem block size.

Good for you!!! Absolutely. I wasn't intending to contradict your point, just to clarify a particular of it.
